naming-conventions

What are the best practices for naming ant targets? For example, what would you expect the target "test" to run? All unit tests? All functional tests? Both? What are the standard names used for running different types of tests (unit/functional/all)? Are there standards for target names to deploy software in J2SE? in J2EE? My project uses ant for a java project with junit, Swing applications, and J2EE applications. david See the "Naming Conventions" section on this page : The Elements of Ant Style The following targets are common to many builds. Always avoid changing the behavior of a well

In Visual Studio 2010, the only option you can create is a commandbar under "Tools" on the "MenuBar". In some cases, I would want to know how to place the command bar on the standard bar, or be found when I right-click a project file. Example: Microsoft.VisualStudio.CommandBars.CommandBar menuBarCommandBar = ((Microsoft.VisualStudio.CommandBars.CommandBars)_applicationObject. CommandBars)["MenuBar"]; By default it shows "MenuBar" and I am certain there is others, such as "Standard". However I am unable to find the resources or documentation for the list, and I wonder if anyone know where to

Is there any name convention for UML? I am interested in knowing how to name classes, packages and methods. However, if there is some document which specifies all naming convention for each UML diagram, please share it. The UML standard does not specify any naming convention. The naming standard you choose depends on the target audience of your UML model. This audience again is dependend on the purpose of your model. If you intend e.g. to generate code from your model than you need to have a result that will fit your target platform. My own experience is that choosing a platform independent

In Rails and CakePHP1.2, forms tend to include input elements with names like the following: <input name="comment[author]" /> Is there a formal name for the notation used in the "name" attribute? Likewise, in CakePHP1.1 I do believe that the same would have looked like this: <input name="comment/author" /> Again, is there a formal name for the notation used in the "name" attribute? in cake php, the naming scheme is in multidimensional array access format, though i'm not really sure what you'd call that. multidimensional array keying? official php docs call it "square bracket notation"

Anal question here: we have Java enums which are their own classes, and enums which are members of a class: public enum reportType { ... Every time I see this it jars me* because when I see it used in a declaration, it's a type, and types should be capitalized. But when I try to capitalize it, Eclipse warns me that I shouldn't capitalize field names. I figure Eclipse probably knows the official Java conventions better than I do, but it just doesn't seem right. Even flipped through the Java conventions doc, but didn't see this issue referenced. no pun intended If they are their own class start

Is there any authoritative information on the web concerning which HTML element to chose for an advertisement banner? I considered <article> or <aside> , but I think more appropriate is simply: <div class="ad"> In most cases I'd use the aside element : The element can be used for […] for advertising , […] and for other content that is considered separate from the main content of the page. As the aside element is a sectioning element, it creates an entry in the document outline, even if you don't use a heading explicitly. In most cases this would be what you want. If you don't host the ad
